Record a manual deposit payment on an estimate

This feature is for Pro Plan subscribers and businesses using Wave’s online payments feature

You can only record deposit payments directly on an estimate.

You cannot record a deposit payment on an estimate after you convert it into an invoice. Instead, manually add an invoice payment to record the deposit.

If your customer has not yet accepted the estimate, when you record the payment, it will be marked as accepted. You can record full or partial deposit payments.

A deposit transaction will appear on your Transactions page in the customer’s credit account. Editing or deleting the transaction will affect the deposit on the estimate and the recorded funds in their credit account. Track customer deposit payments in your customer credit report.
